Abstract
Introduction & Objectives Women have been participating in management roles in corporations in growing numbers over the past decade. These roles have been predominantly male, grounded in values and systems created by men and managed by standards using the male perspective. By and large, the territory is unfamiliar to women; excluding their repertoire of experiences, skills, needs and value system.
